SPEED -- The Ride
is a state-of-the-art roller coaster launched from inside the NASCAR Cafe entertainment
complex in the Sahara Hotel and Casino.

SPEED utilizes electromagnetic force to accelerate
the coaster to top speeds almost instantaneously. SPEED begins inside the
NASCAR Cafe, where an extraordinary force slingshots SPEED out of its launch
site and over its first hill. A steep drop follows as passengers travel 25
feet below the surface through an underground tunnel before propelling them
back above the ground and then through a breathtaking loop. The coaster then
accelerates from 35 M.P.H. to its fastest speed of 70 M.P.H. in just 2 seconds,
as it zips through the Sahara's 192-foot-tall marquee before curving around
the porte-cochere and up a steep incline - - stopping 224 feet above the ground.
SPEED then carries passengers through the same exhilarating path in reverse.
